Why Should You Choose Enamel Signs?
Do you know of any other advertising medium that increases its value as time passes by? Due to its material properties porcelain enamel stands for high value, solidity and longlivety not only in the field of POS and merchandising. Popular, decorative, attractive, and durable, our customizable signs are destined to become collector’s items with their ageless appeal! Combining the glass shine with the strength of steel, our porcelain enamel signs retain their looks in even the toughest weather conditions! We are able to process almost any motif including particular shapes and contours.
Irregular Shapes
Our graphic designing and production capabilities aren’t limited by regular rectangular formats; we’re capable of producing signs in nearly every possible shape imaginable.
Doming & Embossing
Attractive 3D appearances achievable through doming and embossing are available as standard.
Photorealistic Motifs
Modern printing techniques allow us to reproduce every possible motif, including complex colouring
patterns, gradation and shading.
Metallic Effects
By using certain silver and golden colour shades we can produce a gorgeous metallic gloss on our aluminium and tin signs. For our enamel signs, we use real gold and platinum!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you create metal signs from photos I send you?
Yes, absolutely. Send us a photo of the artwork and we can create it for you. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces.
How much does each product cost?
We don’t have a general price list because there are so many variables that can affect cost—things like the material, the finish, quantity, size, shape, and so on—but if you tell us about your project we’ll be happy to give you an individualised quotation.
What is porcelain enamel?
Porcelain enamel is a thin layer of ceramic that’s permanently fused with a metal substrate at extremely high temperatures. The great fact about this unique material is that its glossy finish won’t corrode, so you can hang a porcelain enamel sign outdoors and its colours and shine will still look great decades later.
Can I get a sample?
Yes, contact us to request your free sample and we’ll get in touch with you to make sure we send you the most appropriate one. Since our products are always custom made it’s best if we help you with your choice.
Do you offer signs for collectors?
Yes, we do. Our typical customer for collectables is usually a wholesaler who owns the copyright for a particular design and orders them in batches of at least 100. If you want to do the same you can increase the value of yours by releasing them as a limited edition in porcelain enamel or tin and giving each one a unique serial number. For the finishing touch (and to add a bit more value) we can also create an attractive certificate to give them that ‘official’ feel.
Is it possible to have different text on each sign?
Yes, if you order at least 100 pieces and the format is the same for each one. You can even do this with our 3D embossed designs, and you aren’t just limited to text, either. The same design can also feature different numbers, colours, names, and logos too!
Do you offer customized signs or other products?
Yes, we do and we’re happy to produce whatever you need! We design and manufacture all of our products from scratch and we are always up for creating something new and original.
How long do your signs and their colours last?
We create our signs with long-term promotion in mind so they will keep their good looks for many, many years. Please note that tin signs are meant for indoor use only and aluminium and porcelain enamel signs are built to survive the great outdoors and still look dazzling.
Do you make street signs and house numbers?
Unfortunately not. We specialise in the bulk production of decorative porcelain enamel signs but if you need single items then we recommend you visit our excellent German colleagues at https://classic-emaille.de/
